Canopy Named to Inc. 5000 for Fourth Consecutive Year as Demand for Autonomous Device Supervision Grows

Remote device management leader climbs to No. 2738 on Inc. Magazine's list of America's fastest-growing private companies

Alpharetta, Georgia — August 11, 2026 — Canopy, the trusted provider of AI supervision for unsupervised devices, today announced its inclusion on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies. This marks Canopy's fourth consecutive year on the list and its seventh appearance since the company's founding in 2013.

Canopy ranked No. 2,738 this year, reflecting 116% growth over the past three years. Canopy recently added agentic AI capabilities to its platform, giving operators of large, multi-location device fleets a way to lower the cost of servicing self-checkout kiosks, point-of-sale systems, security devices, digital signage, printers, smart lockers, and an array of other products.

"The remote technologies used to support operations at restaurants, retailers, and more industries grow every year, and with that growth comes complexity and higher IT service costs," said Steve Latham, Canopy founder and CEO. "Canopy offers an intelligent way to manage remote device fleets, providing a way to supervise unsupervised devices around the clock, catch problems early, and resolve them before anyone needs to step in."

Canopy's agentic AI supervision supports growing device fleets without adding headcount to IT and NOC teams, lowering service costs even as more devices are deployed. Without Canopy, remote support teams at quick-service restaurants, retailers, and other businesses struggle to keep up as their fleets grow, driving up costs and letting more device problems reach employees and customers.

With more of the physical world depending upon unattended hardware and integrated software, problems cannot wait to be solved reactively or for technicians to be dispatched. Canopy pairs custom automations with agentic AI to detect and resolve device problems without a technician on-site.
